p.s. It’s hard to explain the butterflies; f.y.i. I found the how to in Peggy Porschen’s book easy to follow because there were pictures with the instructions.

Elizabeth; After the wings are dry (see above) fold a piece of cardboard (prop up so that holds the shape you want for the butterfly), put a folded piece of parchment on top of that cardboard, pipe a bead of icing for the butterfly body in the crease, and set the wings in place into the icing. Let the body dry.

How did you get the wings to be three dimensional? Did you wait for them to dry for a while and then place them in the eggcarton to continue drying what dryness level do you start having them bend to the shape you want? Thanks
